OH. MY GOD. THE FANDOM'S STILL ALIVE. *_THE FANDOM IS STILL ALIVE. I HAVE NEVER GAINED SO MUCH HOPE FOR MAN IN 5 MINUTES AND 56 SECONDS OH MY G O D ._*

The visual callbacks to the Mega Man 8 and Ruby Spears intros are phenomenal. And having Cut Man be the implied "man on the ground" for Wily to make sure Proto Man stays on target is an excellent touch considering how he's the closest to the brothers in creation number next to Roll.

One: absolutely incredible. Two: Ice Man looks like a Sniffit from Mario.

Comment to boost the algorithm because this needs it

Love it. You did a great job of combining the Classic Mega Man aesthetic with the bleak, oppressive Protomen world. (I like that you combined the Robot Master designs with the ones from that official music video from a while back. Elec Man in particular looks great, and I like how weirdly menacing Cut Man comes off.)

This is impressive. I always had problems imagining the scene of this specific song, there were so many "dead spaces" on the narrative and it's a blessing you managed to fill them in a good way. If you're planning to do more, I'll be looking forward, cuz you made a great job here

Can't wait for sons of fate

I love this? I especially love how you show Blues' feelings through his sweeping motions as opposed to facial expressions and how Rock shows his emotions through his face? And the reveal of the scar from his battle and then showing when he was like rock and MWAHHH Its so good my god

The character designs are amazing.

WHO ARE YOU????? I'm upset that I didn't find this sooner!! This is AMAZING!!! I love all of the details; the mixture of normal interpretations and Protomen-specific renditions of the Robot Masters, the art style is pretty nice in my opinion, the battles between Mega Man and several of the others make specific use of what we can see in Mega Man 8 and the Ruby-Spears cartoon, you got Mega Man looking amazing and equally perfect, Proto Man had a hole in his chest that was used amazingly well for the scene, you used Proto Man jumping to line up with the drums kicking in-- There is so much I love about this!!! My only """issues""" I have with this, with three pairs of quotation marks to denote any sincerety, are that I'm not sure if Cut Man actually does make it out to run away. That and...I don't really consider this an animatic. Here's why: this is FAR too detailed and complicated and amazingly well-made for me to think of it as an animatic. Then again, I've only seen very bare-bones animatics done, but I'd argue this is closer to an entire music video, and I LOVE it no matter what this is. If this was from just over a month ago and you started over a year ago, this is ABSOLUTELY a good reason to never give up on your dreams!~

I would pay literal, real world dollars to have you make Vengeance & Sons of Fate 😩 hope this video continues to pop off. Very well done!

Very late to the party, but as a super longtime fan of the band I can't thank you enough for this. Legitimately made my night, we eat very rarely in this fandom. I hope there continues to be more Protomen content from the fanbase in the future such as this

The Protomen songs deserve to be animated soooo bad. Thank you for doing this, it is exactly how it ran on my head whenever I listen to this song.

This helped me prove my belief true. There's something special about The Protomen, and their fans. This was amazing. Tears were brought to my eyes. Thank you very much.

The designs are fucking FANTASTIC for a cyber-punkish, Megaman 1. To say nothing of the second action scene recreating the MM8 cinematic intro through the frames...absolutely fantasic stuff.

This is the toast, man

So many years ago, almost a decade now, I dreamed of animating Protomen songs like this. Of course I became saddled with debt and stress and so many thing that I was never able to do so. But I am glad that there is some one out there who had the talent and determination to pull it off. Good job, and thank you. This story is far too great to be forgotten!

Holy shit this is awesome!!

Interesting take on the song, incorporating the robot masters and even recreating the Ruby Spears opening for the fight. Definitely glad whenever I see music videos of some kind for the Protomen songs

Such a fantastic video! Captured the spirit of the song perfectly :D

Today I listened to the first album of the Protomen, I really enjoyed this song in particular but didn't really have a clear vision of what it would look like as an animation that would give it enough justice. This was REALLY good! And I enjoyed it just as much!

Supporting comment!

Hey, just here dropping a comment saying this is fantastic as hell and a good interpretation of such an iconic song. I'll wait like many Mega Man fans and Protomen fans for a potential animated version of Sons of Fate 🙏

I love it so much ! I hope the Protomen could see it see the fandom is still alive

Chills bro. Absolute chills!

Just found this - out damn standing work.

I love how you even threw a flashback bits from Hope rides alone.

This is beautiful- [screeee]

BRO THIS IS SOOOO AMAZING! LIKE, HOLY REPLOID THE CHARACTERS, THE STORY, THE DESIGN, EVERYTHING WAS AWESOME! You have an amazing talent and you deserve so much more recognition. Keep up the great work friend! (But don't overwork yourself. You deserve a break too)

This is super cool

I love this, The Stand is my favorite song of the album so seeing your interpretation is really cool

Please, make more Mega Man content! You have talent, and the mega man series has stories that are amazing. Ive started writing a podcast about Mega Man, the protomen, and the megas and how the mega man story can help people. But there is a depressing lack of people on youtube talking about this amazing series, and this band. Im sorry to hear life had you down, the same has been happening for me, but Im glad you finished this project, this video helped me love my favorite song a little bit more, i hope it helped pull you up a little bit

dude you are a gift from the universe itself

Son of fate

Everything that everyone else has said in this comment section is everything I would have said, so instead, I'll just point out that Elec Man reminds me of Caleb from Blood.

Awesome! We need more creative works for The Protomen

This is amazing. I'd love to see the whole album animated in this style!

Thank you so much for making this!

Great work!

I absolutely love the references to the works of Ruby Spears and the intro to MM8!

This is absolutely amazing!! It's so rare to find an animatic that's exactly how I imagined it but this is that and more! Please make more!

Beautiful...

Damn that’s dope

While I do love Protomen, I think that this universe's Protoman is pretty much full of shit and is a self-serving a-hole. What do he want people to do, throw a tin can? They'll get eviscerated, electrocuted, every bone crushed, frozen into a block of ice, scorched and finally blown into bloody bits if they tried to do anything. Of course, that is the sin of Dr. Light in this universe, he built his son as a tool and sent him to fight. He tried to teach Rock the lesson he failed to impart on Blues but the lesson didn't catch, at least not yet. Excellent video, I loved Blues's Breakman mono-eye and I loved as spinyjustspiny said, the visual callbacks to MM8 and Ruby Spears 💋👌

GOD THIS RULES SO HARDCORE I AM INSANELY EXCITED ABOUT THIS WHAT THE ACTUAL HELLLL

Oh my gosh I just discovered this channel! It's amazing!

Great job, this is very impressive.

Lord, this is so GOOD! Awesome job with the designs, especially Proto Man’s! Whatever you make next, I’m here for it and will be waiting with baited breath! Keep up the fight for everlasting peace!

Not a Megaman fans but I played the originals growing up. Love Protomen. Good designs.. Great job.

Graat "super fighting robot" reference!!!

This is absolutely stunning. I've always been a fan of the Protomen and their unique interpretation of the Mega Man storyline, and you've captured it so perfectly! Amazing work!

Glad to see this community is still alive. Keep up the good work!

I really loved this! The way you draw Protoman is fantastic and I love the way you use camera angles. The second action sequence was really stunning too. Thank you for sharing this!

dude are you me? this is the exact type of shit i was drawing when this album came out! I love the animatic and you picked my favourite track! Great taste, great style, pretty much exactly what I always pictured, you got yourself a sub!

phenomenal work mate
